"This is a marvellous combination of contemporary history and
political analysis. Mary Kaldor’s collection of essays on the
challenges of human security is wonderfully illuminating. It gives
the reader a firm grip on the momentous – and often deeply
tragic – events over the last two decades, as well as
demystifying the problems of war and peace we face today. The
exploration of the global civil society is particularly original
and timely."
Amartya Sen, Harvard University

“An authoritative and highly readable reconstruction of
the intellectual and political discussions on issues such as global
society, human rights, humanitarian intervention ... recommended
reading for IR students, practitioners and all those wishing to
engage with an influential analysis of the complexities inherent in
humanities intervention.”
Political Studies Review
"Kaldor has provided an influential contribution to the debate
on international relations ... one which makes for an easy and
enjoyable read."
